Genesis has publicly unveiled the high-performance concept car 'Magma GT Concept' and the extreme off-road concept car 'X Scorpio Concept' during their first road test.


Hyundai Motor Company announced on September 14 that the two concept cars were showcased at the 'Tutto Bene Hillclimb' event held on September 9 near Mount Motarone and Lake Maggiore in Italy.


Inaugurated in 2024, the Tutto Bene Hillclimb is an automotive event co-organized by the Milan-based design studio 'Borromeo de Silva' and the Los Angeles-based creative agency 'Race Service.' The event operates by inviting selected vehicles and participants.


The main program of the event features a 9-kilometer mountain road with 51 corners. Unlike typical hillclimb competitions, it emphasizes enjoying the performance and design of the participating vehicles, sharing the joy of driving, and celebrating automotive culture without focusing on rankings or records.


The Magma GT Concept, which made its public debut this time, was first revealed at the 'Magma World Premiere' held at the Paul Ricard Circuit in Le Castellet, France, last November. It symbolizes Genesis's performance vision of 'luxury high performance.'


The X Scorpio Concept was first introduced at an event in the Rub' al Khali desert in the United Arab Emirates in January. It was designed with inspiration from the lifestyle of customers who enjoy off-road leisure activities.
